Items arrived well packed and in short time frame. (Shipped within the same state). Ordered mid summer; might try to germinate a few seeds this year but will wait until spring to plant the majority of them. In high heat area so anxious to see how well the creeping thyme survives under my fruit trees. I have some candy tuft I planted many years ago and I also love seeing the dainty white flowers throughout the summer. Seeds are hard to find locally so way very happy to find them here.

Arrived late. Seeds didn’t grow even though I tried indoor and outdoor potting. The seeds I bought from SeedGeeks all grew fine, so I’m inclined to believe something happened to the seeds I bought from this store.

Unfortunately, I won’t be trying more seeds from this store in the future. I’ll stick to the tried and true shops I’ve found on here instead.

This is on day 6 after sowing. I am using a hydroponic system to begin with. Then I will move to plant lights until March. So excited to see these mature. Thank you so much!!
